You're not the events of your life. You're not your memories, obviously, just even a couple of weeks ago, we hit that one. The past that you think you remember is all BS, pretty much.
Ever thought healing was the answer to your struggles? Think again. In this episode of 'Alive and Free', Bob Gardner turns the concept of healing on its head. He argues that the very idea of needing to heal implies something is wrong with you, which can lead to more misery and shame. Instead, Bob suggests seeing your life as a finished masterpiece, flaws and all, and starting fresh with a new canvas.
The episode kicks off with a fascinating discussion on how art can help you see hidden beauty in life. Bob dives into the pitfalls of the 'fix me' mindset, explaining how it can trap you in a cycle of self-judgment and suffering. But don't worry, he's got a refreshing alternative. He introduces the 'Masterpiece' mindset, encouraging you to be oddly grateful for your past traumas and addictions because they shape who you are today.
Bob also shares a unique exercise: writing your own eulogy. It might sound morbid, but it's a powerful way to let go of your worst experiences and start anew. This episode isn't just about letting go; it's about celebrating the life you've lived so far and getting excited about the blank canvas ahead. If you're tired of the endless quest for healing and want to embrace a new perspective, this episode is a must-listen.
Bob's blend of tough love, humor, and unconventional wisdom will leave you feeling inspired and ready to paint your next masterpiece.
